21 Connecting Instruments to LAN 2 Step 3: Gather Network Information 3 Gather Network Information Gather network parameters for site LAN connections or define private LAN parameters. Site LAN Network Information Card lnstrument Information (Completed by Instrument User) (Serial Number and Ethernet (MAC) Hardware Address usually on label on instrument) Instrument Serial Number: Ethernet (MAC) Hardware Address: What s in This Step? When you have selected the type of LAN to connect your instrument to, the next step is to gather information for your site LAN or to define parameters for your private LAN. When you have gathered the necessary information, go to Step 4: Connect Your Instruments. For steps to gather site LAN network information, go to Gather Site LAN Network Information. For steps to select private LAN network parameters, go to Define Private LAN Network Parameters. Agilent Connectivity Guide 21
22 2 Connecting Instruments to LAN Gather Site LAN Network Information Suggested steps follow to gather information for instrument connections to a site LAN. 1 Does the Site LAN Support DHCP? Find out if the site LAN supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). In general, if the site LAN supports DHCP, you can connect your instruments to the site LAN without contacting your IT department. However, if your local policy requires it, contact your System Administrator in your Information Technology (IT) department and tell him/her you want to connect instruments to the LAN. 2 Select Automatic Configuration. If the site LAN supports DHCP, IP addresses for the instruments are automatically assigned by the network. If you do not require fixed (static) IP addresses for your instruments, you do not need to complete the Site LAN Network Information Card. Go to Step 4: Connect Your Instruments. OR Select Manual Configuration. If the site LAN does not support DHCP or if you want to set a fixed (static) IP address for each instrument, the System Administrator must assign the static IP addresses and you must manually configure your instruments. 3 Enter Instrument Information. If the LAN does not support DHCP or if you selected manual configuration, make a copy of the Site LAN Network Information Card for each instrument to be connected to the site LAN. Record the instrument serial number and hardware (MAC) address on the Instrument Information section of the card. 4 Give the Cards to the System Administrator. Give the partially completed card(s) to the System Administrator and ask him/her to complete the Site LAN Information part of each card and to return the card(s) to you. Then, go to Step 4: Connect Your Instruments. 22 Agilent Connectivity Guide

Yes No If Yes, provide: Instrument Host Name: Instrument Domain Name: DNS Server IP Address:... Will You Allow Universal Plug&Play to be Enabled? Yes No Agilent Connectivity Guide 23
24 2 Connecting Instruments to LAN Define Private LAN Network Parameters Suggested steps follow to define parameters for a private LAN. NOTE For a private LAN you, the designer of the LAN, are the System Administrator for the LAN and are responsible for defining all private LAN parameters. However, you may want to check with the System Administrator in your Information Technology (IT) department for guidelines on designing your private LAN. 1 Does the LAN Support DHCP? In general, private LANs with a router support DHCP but typically do not support Dynamic DNS. Determine if the LAN supports DHCP. NOTE Most Agilent products and most PCs will automatically choose an IP address via auto-ip, if a DHCP server is not present. 2 Complete the Network Information Card. Make a separate copy of the Private LAN Network Information Card for each instrument to be connected to the private LAN. For each card, define and record the network, PC settings, and instrument settings you want for the LAN. As required, see TCP/IP Network Basics or the Glossary for a definition of terms. 3 Where to Go Next. When you have completed the Private LAN Network Information Cards, go to Step 4: Connect Your Instruments. 24 Agilent Connectivity Guide

Auto- discover is not shown in the Change Properties dialog box, because it is required to be Off (No) for a LAN interface. Agilent Connectivity Guide 39
40 2 Connecting Instruments to LAN Add and Configure a LAN Instrument When an instrument resides on your local area network (LAN), there are several ways to add the instrument to your test system configuration. You may also use any of these methods to make a change to an existing instrument. NOTE Connection Expert only discovers LAN instruments automatically in your local subnet to prevent disrupting your network traffic. In practical terms, your local subnet is defined as being on your side of the nearest router. To communicate with LAN instruments that are remote (on the other side of the router), you must be able to specify a Hostname or IP address in the LAN Instrument dialog box. Connecting an instrument on your LAN local subnet When an instrument is on your LAN local subnet, the easiest way to add the instrument is to request that Connection Expert discover the instrument. This eliminates the need to specify the IP address or the instrument hostname. Connecting an instrument outside your LAN local subnet When an instrument resides outside your LAN local subnet, you may specify the instrument by either the IP address or the instrument hostname. Connection Expert can discover any server on the local subnet that uses either the VXI- 11 or the SICL- LAN protocol. After Connection Expert discovers a remote instrument on the LAN, it performs the same bus addressing procedures as it would for a local instrument. If Connection Expert can open a connection to an instrument, it considers that the instrument has been discovered (even though Connection Expert does not send or receive any information). To discover an instrument on your local subnet, 1 Select the LAN interface node in the explorer pane, LAN (TCPIP0) for this example. Right- click to get a menu. Then click Add Instrument. (Alternatively, you could click 40 Agilent Connectivity Guide

Figure 16 Editing Properties in the LAN Instrument Dialog Box Communicate with Instruments Using Interactive IO You can use the Interactive IO utility within Connection Expert, VISA Assistant, or the Telnet utility to verify communication with instruments via the LAN. Agilent Connectivity Guide 47
48 2 Connecting Instruments to LAN This section gives guidelines to communicate with your instruments using Interactive IO. NOTE Communication with installed LAN instruments was established in Run Agilent Connection Expert if the instruments were visible and verified in the Connection Expert explorer view. Therefore, this is an optional step you can use to verify communication with instruments. Interactive IO is a software utility that lets you interactively send commands to instruments and see their responses without writing any program code. You can use Interactive IO to quickly verify connectivity to your instrument, to troubleshoot communication problems, to learn the instrument's command set, and to rapidly prototype commands and check the instrument's responses before writing code. Start Interactive IO from within the Connection Expert, either by clicking the Send commands to this instrument task in the task guide, or, on the Connection Expert menu bar, by clicking Tools > Interactive IO. Example using Interactive IO 1 Select the desired instrument in the explorer view. Click Tools > Interactive IO. Interactive IO gives you a number 48 Agilent Connectivity Guide
49 Connecting Instruments to LAN 2 of common IEEE and SCPI commands for communicating with instruments, as shown below. Figure 17 Common and SCPI Commands in Interactive IO You can also type in instrument- specific commands (from your instrument s programming guide). The common commands and their meanings are listed in the table below Commands Meaning *IDN? *CLS *OPC? *RCL *RST The Identification query returns manufacturer, model, serial number, and firmware level or equivalent. The Clear Status command clears status data structures, and forces the device to the Operation Complete query idle state. The Operation Complete query places an ASCII character 1 into the device s Output Queue when all pending selected device operations have been finished. The Recall command restores the current settings of a device from a copy stored in local memory. The Reset command performs a device reset, which sets the device-specific functions to a known state that is independent of the past-use history of the device. Agilent Connectivity Guide 49
50 2 Connecting Instruments to LAN *SAV *STB? *TRG *TST? The Save command stores the current settings of the device in local memory. The Read Status Byte query allows the programmer to read the status byte and master Summary Status bit. The Trigger command signals the transition of the Device Trigger (DT) function to the Device Trigger Active State (DTAS). The Self-test query returns zero to indicate the test completed with no errors. A return value not equal to zero indicates the test is not completed or completed with errors. SCPI Commands SYST:ERR? The queue query message is a request for the next entry from the instrument s error/event queue. Items in this queue contain an integer in the range [-32768, 32767] denoting an error/event number and associated descriptive text. Negative numbers are reserved by the SCPI standard; positive numbers are instrument-dependent. A value of zero indicates that no error or event has occurred. 2 Open the Commands menu and select a command. The example below shows a *IDN? command selected. Figure 18 *IDN? Command Example in Interactive IO 50 Agilent Connectivity Guide
51 Connecting Instruments to LAN 2 3 Click Send & Read to send the command and receive a response. The results are displayed in the Instrument Session History. Alternatively, you can click the Send Command and Read Response buttons, when you desire, to control the time gap between these commands. Interactive IO has a default timeout value set (5000 ms.), which may not be long enough for your particular application. To change that default, go to Interact > Options, edit the Timeout value, and click OK. Agilent Connectivity Guide 51

60 3 Connecting Instruments to USB USB Interface Overview When a USB device that implements the USBTMC or USBTMC- USB488 protocol is plugged into the computer, the Agilent IO Libraries Suite automatically detects the device. It is important to note that only USBTMC and USBTMC- USB488 devices are recognized by the IO Libraries Suite. Other USB devices such as printers, scanners, and storage devices are not recognized and cannot be programmed with the Agilent IO Libraries Suite. USB instruments in the remainder of this section refers to devices that implement the USBTMC or USBTMC- USB488 protocol. Connecting an Instrument via USB or Converter. The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a quick and easy way to connect instruments to PCs on a benchtop. Some newer instruments have USB interfaces built in; for those that do not, you can use the Agilent 82357A USB/GPIB Interface Converter to connect GPIB instruments to a USB port on your PC. You can use USB to connect a single instrument to a PC; or, with the 82357A, you can connect up to 14 GPIB instruments. NOTE Do not confuse the Agilent USB/GPIB Interface Converter with a USBTMC device. The is automatically configured as a GPIB interface, not as a USBTMC device, when it is plugged into the computer. Steps to Connect USB Instruments Use the steps in this figure to directly connect USB instruments to a Windows PC. If you have not yet installed I/O software on your PC, go to Installing I/O Software and install the software BEFORE you connect USB instruments to your PC. When you have made the connections for your system, go to Step 3: Identify Instruments Automatically. 60 Agilent Connectivity Guide
